Lamar Odom's lawyer on Wednesday entered a "not guilty" plea for the basketball star on a driving under the influence charge, a court spokeswoman said.

Odom, who is married to reality TV star Khloe Kardashian, was not in court for the arraignment at the Van Nuys branch of Los Angeles County Superior Court.

The basketball star was arrested in the early morning hours of August 30 by a California Highway Patrol officer who reported seeing Odom, 33, driving his white Mercedes SUV in a "serpentine manner at 50 mph."

Odom "showed objective signs of intoxication and he was unable to perform his field sobriety tests," a CHP news release said.

The judge set a pretrial hearing for 8:30 a.m. November 8. Odom's lawyer did not immediately respond to CNN requests for comment.
